Let $X,Y$ be two irreducible subvarieties of the projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$, and $d\geq 1$ an integer number. The main result of this paper is an algorithm to construct {\bf explicitly}, in terms of $d$ and the ideals defining $X$ and…

Koll\'ar gave a series of examples of rational surfaces of Picard number $1$ with ample canonical divisor having cyclic singularities. In this paper, we construct several series of new examples in a geometric way, i.e., by blowing up…

We show that if a divisor centered over a point on a smooth surface computes a minimal log discrepancy, then the divisor also computes a log canonical threshold. To prove the result, we study the asymptotic log canonical threshold of the…

We prove that for log canonical foliations which are birationally bounded by algebraically integrable families, the set of their volumes satisfies the DCC. This answers a special case of a question posed by Cascini, Hacon, and Langer. As a…

Let $(X,\Delta)$ be a projective, log canonical, $K$-trivial pair over the complex numbers. Let $Z$ be a minimal log canonical center of $(X,\Delta)$ and suppose that there exists a torus $\mathbb{T}\subseteq\operatorname{Aut}(X)$…

We construct a natural branch divisor for equidimensional projective morphisms where the domain has lci singularities and the target is nonsingular. The method involves generalizing a divisor contruction of Mumford from sheaves to…

Let $k$ be a field, let ${\sf C}$ be a $k$-linear abelian category, let $\underline{\mathcal{L}}:=\{\mathcal{L}_{i}\}_{i \in \mathbb{Z}}$ be a sequence of objects in ${\sf C}$, and let $B_{\underline{\mathcal{L}}}$ be the associated orbit…

We study the Hilbert scheme of Palatini threefolds X in P^5. We prove that such a scheme has an irreducible component containing X which is birational to the Grassmannian G(3,14) and we determine the exceptional locus of the birational map.

We study the structures of klt Calabi--Yau pairs. We show that the discrepancies of log centers of all klt Calabi--Yau varieties with fixed dimension are in a finite set. As a corollary, we show that the index of 4-dimensional non-canonical…

We give an example of a non $\Q$-Gorenstein variety which is canonical but not klt, and whose canonical divisor has an irrational valuation. We also give an example of an irrational jumping number and we prove that there are no accumulation…

We show that a proper algebraic n-dimensional scheme Y admits nontrivial vector bundles of rank n, even if Y is non-projective, provided that there is a modification containing a projective Cartier divisor that intersects the exceptional…

We prove vanishing of the higher direct images of the structure (and the canonical) sheaf for a proper birational morphism with source a smooth variety and target the quotient of a smooth variety by a finite group of order prime to the…

Let X and Y be complex smooth projective varieties, and D^b(X) and D^b(Y) the associated bounded derived categories of coherent sheaves. Assume the existence of a triangulated category T which is admissible both in D^b(X) as in D^b(Y).…

We prove a functorial correspondence between a category of logarithmic $\mathfrak{sl}_2$-connections on a curve $X$ with fixed generic residues and a category of abelian logarithmic connections on an appropriate spectral double cover $\pi :…

Given a morphism $X \to S$ of fine log schemes, we develop a geometric description of the sheaves of higher-order differentials $\Omega^n_{X/S}$ for $n > 1$, as well as a definition of the de Rham complex in terms of this description.

We prove a relative Kawamata Viehweg vanishing type theorem for birational morphisms. We use this to prove a Grauert Riemenschneider theorem over log canonical threefolds without zero dimensional log canonical centers, in residue…

We show that the set of rationally connected projective varieties $X$ of a fixed dimension such that $(X,B)$ is klt, and $-l(K_X+B)$ is Cartier and nef for some fixed positive integer $l$, is bounded modulo flops.

We study the birational self-maps of the projective plane over finite fields that induce permutations on the set of rational points. As a main result, we prove that no odd permutation arises over a non-prime finite field of characteristic…

We totally classify the projective toric varieties whose canonical divisors are divisible by their dimensions. In Appendix, we show that Reid's toric Mori theory implies Mabuchi's characterization of the projective space for toric…

We consider the operation of intersecting with a locally principal Cartier divisor (i.e., a Cartier divisor which is principal on some neighborhood of its support). We describe this operation explicitly on the level of cycles and rational…
